Moving On Requires Closure/Cloture First

There are calls for unity, calls to move on... That by dwelling in the past Democrats divide the nation...

If the Republicans had not chosen the orange menace as their candidate;

January 6th could not have happened... 

If the Republicans had voted to impeach the orange menace, the first time they were given the opportunity;

January 6th could not have happened... 

If the fleeing, book-writing, cabinet members had used the knowledge, demonstrated in the pages their books, to use the 25th amendment;

January 6th could not have happened...

January 6^th, 2021 happened!

The Republican party still had more legislators objecting to the certification of the electors' votes than they have publicly admitting cognizance of 45's culpability for the events of the 6th of January!

Fewer Republicans in the House of Representatives voted to impeach, the second impeachment, than voted to obstruct the certification of the electors' votes.

The 45 administration caused a massive increase in the federal deficit, yet one heard nothing from Republican sycophants in congress...

The 46 administration starts with the Republican sycophants rediscovery, and horror, about the huge federal deficit; like when Clinton (42) followed HW Bush (41) and Obama (44) followed W Bush (43)... A pattern emerges.

We can see the light at the end of the tunnel when the investigations, documentation, indictments and prosecution (to the full extent of the law), of those Republicans who are complicit, enablers of the orange menace (by choosing to be sycophants), and of the orange menace himself, have been completed.

Consequences for Sedition and Insurrection

The USA has, since it's inception, been building towards a universally inclusive, democratic republic. It is a great concept that started in an era of increasing enlightenment... As the centuries have past there has been a reasonably consistent effort to apply the benefits of our democratic republic, closer and closer, to 100% of our citizens and immigrants.

 

Every step towards the inclusion of everybody has met with resistance/push back.

The push back has been from white, northern European, Americans and it has culminated in insurrection in the US capital; in the US Capitol Building. The lies, sedition and regressive direction of these northern European, white, Americans started, again, after the defeat of those same people in their last act of violent insurrection; the Civil War.

The Civil War's end was followed by few, to no, consequences for the parties responsible for sedition leading to, and their involvement in, said insurrection. Hence began the process, sedition, involved in the start of the re-prosecution of the Civil War. The regression accelerated after the election of an African American to two terms as President of these United States of America.

The Republican party has chosen to be a partner in fomenting sedition, and the resulting insurrection, over many decades. It started with their objections to the Equal and Voting Rights Acts; the courts slowly, but consistently disassembling, “Jim Crow;” and government institutions (especially the US military) integrating society.

There must be serious consequences (investigation, documentation, indictment and prosecution to the fullest extent of the law) for the individuals and institutions associated with the activities that have led to sedition and insurrection in 2021, or else we will, once again (sooner than later), resume the path toward white supremacists attempting to replace our democratic republic with an authoritarian regime that caters exclusively to said white, northern European, Americans.

The next attempted coup may be a more competent effort.

It Wasn't a Blue Tsunami, but...

 It wasn't a Blue Tsunami, but it was very close.

There are going to be Democrats in the White House (starting on January 20^th 2021), they will have a minimal, Democratic majority in the US Senate and we have retained a modest, Democratic majority in the US House of Representatives. Thereby, the new 46^th administration will be able to accomplish things that are needed by all of us in these United States of America.

How did this happen?

We, those who vote for government that benefits all of us, showed up at the polls. We voted! We won, barely.

It is very important to note that those who do not vote in their own best interest, and are often quite unaware of it, also voted in very large numbers. We barely defeated them.

We must always show up at the polls, every time, because a democratic republic is only, “of the people,” when the vast majority of people own their responsibility and vote.

There were leaders who helped drive this effort to turn out voters; there were groups of people who have been the most consistent in casting their ballots... They will not be called out here because the list is long and some will almost certainly be missed.

We all, and more, must do it, vote, again and again and again, ad infinitum... Because we have, quite recently, come altogether too close to losing our democratic republic and we must not allow that to happen again.

Democratic Socialism is... Regulated Capitalism

 As one drives down public streets past public schools, public hospitals, police and fire stations, military bases... 

You know where you are because you've got GPS (DARPA/NASA) on your Internet ((D)ARPAnet) connected cell phone (FFRDCs)... 

The government, in the USA, invests at least 30% of the money that goes into the economy annually.

That is democratic socialism and regulated capitalism...  It has worked well, and will almost certainly continue to do so if, and only if, we the people participate in electing competent people to govern this process; vote to keep our democratic republic.
